Taskbar Icons Disappear at Start-Up or Re-Start

Hi,

The program icons all disappear from the task-bar when I start or restart in Windows 10. But, if I right-click on the task-bar and select: Task Manager > Windows Explorer (right-click) > restart, I get all my icons back until my next start-up or restart and then they’re all gone again. How do I fix the start-up process or is it something else?

Thanks in anticipation!

Tim.

Do you experience the same symptoms?
